  • Carbon fiber and glass fiber reinforced materials
  • CFRP and GFRP
  • Unidirectional and/or fabric-reinforced prepreg systems
  • Thermoset resin systems
  • Composite material processing
  • Curing and manufacturing processes
  • Material testing and qualification
  • Structural composite applications
  • Meaningful experience working directly with customers in a technical or commercial environment.
  • Experience working for or with prepreg manufacturers, advanced composite material suppliers, composite fabricators, OEMs, material processors, or technical distributors is particularly valuable.

Compensation & Benefits
  • Target base salary of $110,000, commensurate with experience
  • Performance-based variable compensation
  • 100% employer-paid medical coverage
  • Company-supported dental and vision coverage
  • Employer-paid life, short-term, and long-term disability insurance
  • Retirement savings participation with company match
